I just finished building a redwood patio table for outside. The wood was given to me by a friend, it was from his old deck, 2 x 6's and 2 x
10's. After I milled it down, it was beautiful wood. I've never worked with redwood before. I love the color of the wood. The table is under a canopy on my patio. Here's the question: To retain the freshly milled color of the redwood, would you protect it with a water sealer or use polyurethane and a final wax? I've read that redwood will turn grey in time, how can I avoid this? Thanx in advance for your help. John
